Ginger Crinkles Cookie Recipe

By Lorraine

So autumn… So yummy!

An old-fashioned recipe handed down through the years, Ginger crinkles cookies are a favorite especially during the autumn season.
Ginger Crinkles Cookie recipe came got from a friend (who got it from a friend, who got it from her grandmother) back in the early 80’s. Crunchy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. It has been a favorite at our house all these years.

    I love ginger cookies! I have my german grandmother's recipe which is similar to yours. She called them Sugar and Spice cookies, but my girls and I have always called them 'Man Catchers!' You can guess the reason!
    Blessings!

    So very grateful for my vision…my oldest son lost the vision in one eye following a horrible car accident in 1995. I remember his fear (and mine) while we waited to see how his other eye would heal. Praise God the other eye was saved. We were just talking the other day about how glad he was that he could "see" his sweet Penelope.

    I just ordered the Fanny Farmer baking book. I had it many years ago and it had the best gingersnaps recipe in it. I can't wait to make them again. Perhaps I will do a comparison of your ginger crinkles.
